Law & Order (1990-2010)

Law & Order was a crime procedural series that originally aired on NBC from 1990 to 2010. Each episode in the series followed a particular case from the perspective of the police that investigated the crime to the district attorneys who prosecuted the offenders. Despite several cast changes over its two decade run, the show endured to be tied for the longest running drama in US television history. The show would also spawn several direct spinoff series including Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Law & Order: Trial by Jury, and Law & Order: Los Angeles.

The following weapons were used in the series Law & Order:


Handguns

Glock 19

The Glock 19 is the main sidearm carried by the majority of NYPD detectives on the show. The first regular detective seen carrying the Glock was Det. Rey Curtis (Benjamin Bratt). The other detectives seen carrying the Glock include Detectives Ed Green (Jesse L. Martin), Nick Falco (Michael Imperioli), Nina Cassidy (Milena Govich), Cyrus Lupo (Jeremy Sisto) and Kevin Bernard (Anthony Anderson). NYPD Officers are seen carrying Glocks as well. The Glock Model 19 is one of the three semi-automatic 9mm pistols authorized by the NYPD for their officers to carry.

Smith & Wesson Model 19

Detective Joe Fontana (Dennis Farina) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 19 with a 2.5-inch barrel. It could be assumed that his revolver is loaded with .38 special rounds since .357 Magnum revolvers are not on the approved carry list.

Charter Arms Undercover

A Charter Arms Undercover appears in Season 5's "Wannabe" (S05E05). The gun is said to be chambered in .32R&P, which is incorrect, since the Undercover is only chambered in .38 Special, and would therefore be the Undercoverette model, which would be chambered in .32R&P.
